Private driver Amalfi Coast

is anyone able to suggest a reasonably priced private driver for day trips around the Amalfi Coast Naples area of Italy?
Also looking for recommendations for reasonably priced accommodation along this coastline. We will be in this area for 7 nights in October 2015 and would like to be in a convenient location to cafes, with ease of access and not too many stairs. Twin share with private bathroom and breakfast provided.

We have used Guemar Travel, based in Sorrento many times for transfers and trips along the coast. They're excellent!

What town do you want to stay in?

WWK thank you for your reply. We haven't decided on a town at this point. We round like to be near the coast for this part of the trip.

First - you need to provide a specific euro amount per night for the hotel. Second, what do you plan on doing - you might pick different towns to stay depending on if you want to do a lot of sightseeing (Naples. ompei, Capri, etc) versus just relaxing in a smaller town and walking on a beach (likely too cold for swimming).

Highly recommend Francesco! He was an excellent guide, driver and a nice person. Knowledgeable and loves what he does.

We arranged a driver through our hotel in Amalfi (Hotel Floridiana recommended Amalfi Taxi). He picked us up at the Naples airport, drove us to Amalfi and then picked us up 4 days later and drove us back to the Naples train station (along with a stop over at Pompeii. Excellent service and fair price (Amalfi to Naples with the stop was 240 euros.) Do not recall Naples to Amalfi fee.
